The pattern calls for 15 repeats so, I am almost half way done with the lace edging. I felt a bit like Penelope last week because I kept ripping back my first repeat. Part of the problem was the yarn overs on the top edge. I always have issues with yarn overs when you are going from a purl stitch to a knit stitch or vice versa. When going from a knit stitch to a purl stitch the yarn overs always come out larger than when going from a purl stitch to a knit stitch. You can see the Zodiac symbol marching along, and the wave motif on the bottom edge. When I'm done with the lace edge I'll pick up stitches along the top edge and knit the body.
